So I went to work today, wholeheartedly devoted to working for the Lord, determined to let my light shine in the workplace. I decided to choose contentment, pushing myself to be happy with what I was given and make the best of it, regardless of my feelings. We were consistently busy today, and I was on my feet all day with no break. But I like it that way. I like feeling like my day was productive and if I am going to spend 6 hours at work, I want it to be a busy 6 hours. I had a good day, even though I worked my booty off.
At the end of the day, I say goodbye to one of the managers and she says she wants to talk to me. So we walk outside where she informs me that she wants to train me as a server. WHOA! Now understand, I applied to work as a server, but since the Salt Lick is an established place, people usually have to work 1-2 years to work up to a server position. I feel like God has blessed me immensely. My manager still has to get this approved by her boss, but regardless, she thinks I am server material. And if I don't get it this time around, more than likely I will get another chance soon. And I have been working there only two months! Only God could bring opportunities like this. Being a server at the Salt Lick means being a respected part of a favorite Texas establishment. No joke! and the money ain't bad...hahaha!
It just reminds me of what God can do when you surrender to Him. He blesses those who pursue Him with all their heart, soul, and mind. He brings success and favor. He is good, and I don't know why I am surprised, honestly. I know God is good, I am just always blown away when He chooses to pour His goodness out on me. I am so undeserving, but I am so thankful. The day after I pour my heart out about this job into my blog, He gives me the opportunity I was hoping for all along. Isn't he so funny?
